Google Merchant Account Suspension|Misrepresentation

[vibetreat]

Hello everyone,

I have recently attempted to link Google Merchant with my new unused store, however I have almost instantly received an email claiming that my account has been suspended for policy violation, more specifically misrepresentation of self or product. I have tried to contact google support but it was unsuccessful. Could you please help me on the matter, thank you in advance.

The link to the store - vibetreat.com

Hi

After going through with your concern I would feel like to help you and support you ! Basically I would love to provide free of cost support but I will need few information to evaluate your Google Merchant center account

Can you kindly provide me the access to your Merchant center account access on seopatel9@gmail.com

Thank you.

There could be a lot of reasons. Most of the time if not all, when Google does not provide any further info in the email they sent you, then it is a permanent ban. Google ultimately decides who can advertise and who can't regardless of policies.

The most common issues are:

1. Not adding full contact details (email, phone number, address, contact form)
2. Not having returns and refund, delivery, privacy policy and terms of service pages
3. Selling products that are not allowed
4. Selling product you do not stock, for example, dropshipping
5. Not adding any added content, and simply copy-pasting other sites

You can ask Google for further explanation if they can. To do so ask here and check the box, I need more info : https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/suspended

If you provide the community with more detailed information, we may be able to provide further guidance.

Hope this helps.

Please note that Google only allows genuine businesses.

Having reviews in May and having your website registered in June is not genuine. Submitting fake reviews is not allowed, most likely you are banned for life.

Also note you seem to be drop shipping.

Did you ever get this fixed?  If yes, do you have any advice?  Also please sign my petition for Google to actually start helping us Petition · Google, Inc: Tell Google AdWords to Stop Banning Honest Customers · Change.org.
